A name not often mentioned for our #14: Sylvester Williams

I'll take your word for it. I wasn't pushing the idea so much as repeating what I've seen in some recent mocks. All I have to go off of is youtube videos and he looks quite good in those. MUCH better than Short, Floyd, or really anyone but Star, Hankins and *maybe* Richardson (though S. Williams seems to offer a more diverse skillset). I'll certainly trust the opinion of someone who's watched all the UNC games over what I've seen in youtube videos.

yea looking back on my post I wasn't trying to come across as a jerk at all, just not really interested in him

I really like Sly. Yeah, some people think he's a reach, but we can say the same about Allen, Hopkins, Cyprien, Fluker... just about all the attractive options we've been talking about. Do I think it's likely? No, because he has a problem with finishing. He has a good motor, but there are a lot examples of him not dotting his I's and crossing his T's. Rivera won't be a fan of that.

Yeah Julius Peppers sucks. But I would be mad if we took Sly at 14. I don't want him at all honestly

So one out of 15 taken in the first two rounds actually turned out to be good...

No thanks.

That's like saying Clausen Quinn and Mirer were going to be good because of Montana

    • Even if he beats the odds, returns midseason  and plays like he did last year it won’t warrant a big contract extension. 
    • It’ll be interesting to see how the board falls I completely agree with you on TE for us The safety from Oregon would be the cherry on top for Evero’s defense/scheme.  If a OL’men is there that you love it would be very hard to pass up. This fan base seems to just see Walker as a stop gap but I wouldn’t be so sure. He’s the same age as Ekwonu. He’s had a much more impressive career arc/progression than Icky has. He’s the better pass protector. As far as I see it if Walker has a good year I’d bring him back over Icky. Ekwonu isn’t some elite franchise LT. Playing next to Lewis is going to be great for Walker much like it has been for Icky. We definitely need to get younger/cheaper on the OL though so for this reason alone it’s still top of my list come round 1 if board falls this way  Could also use another corner with Mike Jackson’s deal up after this season and needing a nickel but Corey Thornton looked really good in that role in the limited time we got to see him. However he’s coming off an achillies injury and you never know with those.  Then as mentioned above we do still have a need at WR. As far as “weapons” go it’s kind of a 2 man show with Tmac and Coker and neither is a burner. If Jordan Tyson is there at 19 and we can have a young WR group locked up for cheap that’s a huge advantage cap wise  And don’t forget linebacker. That clip in Devin’s Lloyd blueprint they used from Evero saying they need more intelligence there could’ve been left out for Wallace’s sake but it’s true. Wallace is lost in coverage. Pair a smart linebacker with Lloyd and that’s a group with Wallace and Cherelus being depth
